Make display unit for Geometry Nodes group inputs selectable from the sidebar.

Currently, if you want a geometry nodes group input to display the value as a scene unit (such as meters or degrees), the only way to get there is by connecting an appropriate socket to the input node at the moment of creating the input socket .

It would be great to be able to do this after the fact in the group input panel to make iterating and building user-friendly node groups more streamlined.

My proposal is an additional dropdown menu for numerical inputs called Unit with options such as None / Length / Rotation blender_geometry_nodes_units.jpg

This was added in 3.6 with the "subtype" dropdown

so this can be marked as "Done"
